MacDailyNews Take: Can’t wait to see it!
This is all about anti-Iran to make the US public hate Iran even though the US was the clear aggressor when it toppled a democratically elected president Mosadeh and continues to be the aggressor now. The series is likely financed by the Pentagon because the US is still pissed that it did not get its way in the end and that Iran is an independent nation, not becoming a US satrap like many others.
I think it may be a little late to relitigate something that was planned by Winston Churchill in 1952 and executed with CIA assistance in the seventh month of President Eisenhower’s first term.
Well, that history develops my argument to give a broader context for what I think is a propagandistic series, pro-war and pro-colonialism.
I really don’t want to have anything to do with either side of the Middle East as it’s such a mess. However I do recommend “Sisters in Arms” (Soeurs d’armes) which is a cracker of a war movie about a unit of the Kurdish international women’s brigade in the fight against Islamic State.
You will need subtitles for this movie and there is a small section of French where there are NO subs. However, it really is an eye-opener and a good view to while away a couple of hours during the pandemic.
Yes, people are surprised by the uplifting effort and results achieved by the Kurdish YPG militia and especially its Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) against ISIS in Rojava, Syria. The contrast to Iraqi’s Kurds who are corrupt and conservative and even in bed with Islamo-Fascist president Erdogan in Turkey is stark. The Rojavans are egalitarian, environmental, secular, gender-neutral, and truly democratic operating on the down-up principle.
I had hoped that Russia and the US would have protected and nurtured the Rojavan form of governance and its hard-won territory but, no.
I see lots of iPhone use there because of its heightened privacy.
